The Turning Point
Former
dance colleagues Deedee and Emma are reunited when Emma's New York
ballet company stops in Oklahoma City for a performance. Having dropped
her career for marriage and motherhood, Deedee envies prima ballerina
Emma's limelight life; aging Emma, realizing that her days as a star
are numbered, wishes that she had the fulfillment of a family like
Deedee's.
Tensions simmer when Deedee's talented teenage daughter Emilia moves
to New York to join Emma's company. As Emma maternally bonds with
Emilia, and Emilia falls in love with womanizing dancer Yuri, Deedee
feels that she's losing her place even as a mother. After Emilia's
triumphant debut, Deedee's and Emma's resentments boil over into an
all-out catfight that ends when they realize that they can unite in
happiness for Emilia's future.
